GREAT BUFFALO HERDS.
An Interesting "Reminiscences OF GenerI
John q. Frenlont

An interesting kemtniScenCe OF General
John &. Fremont.
The Union Pacific Commission during one
Of the noon adiournments whiled the hours
away by mdulging in storytelling and
sampling the quality Of a few Havana
cigars, says the Leavenworth KAN Times.
General John &. Fremont, the "path-
finder" having appeared upon the scene,
he was called upon by David T. Littler to
relate a few Of his early "reminiscences in
the far West.
The General, with "a far-away look in his
bright eyes, as il soiloquizing over the
eventful past, quietly leaned back in his
chair and said; "Well, gentlemen, the
Western country was, 80 90 speak, nothing
but country when i first explored its wilds.
| first knew that country in 1872 During
that year went from the north Of the Mis-
souri, over 10 the great Pacific, and had
quite an eventful experience.
1--WE encountered many tribes Of Indians
during our tramp, and although not having
more than sixty men as escort bravely
marched over plain and mountain in the
prosecution Of our work. We subsisted
wholly on wild game, and relished it great
ly."
"Now, General" said Commissioner Lit
tier, ''as Governor Pattison has seen fit to
look upon me as a modern Munchausen,
simply because had assured him that at
one time had seen drove Of buffalo num-
bering over twenty thousand, will call upon
you TO corroborate my statement"
''Oh twenty thousand is not a large num-
ber,n responded the pathfinder.
iHow many buffalo have you seen at one
timer asked Ex-Governor Pattison.
II have seen q drove Of buffalo while trav-
cling across the plains through which it
took our party three days to pass. sup
pose that there must have been two hundred
thousand In the drove. You could see them
rs far as the eye could reach, yet to-day
they are almost extinct"
